I'm faced with this exact issue...i.e. need to have 'COPY' backup to tyros. My backup at present is 9K which because of it's difference to 'T'.must be seperatly maintained with programme data..& it's too heavy...but I don't want to part with it.

I do have old reliable 8K so i guess I'll be forced to see what value they will put on it against 3000...which as you guys seem to agree is the best option as T backup.
